Quotes:


“Safety is our number one priority. After that, we want to figure out how we can make this child better when we walk into this space with them.”


“Childcare takes a village. It is a lot more than someone just watching your child.” - Nikki Spo


“Children need to have experiences while you’re having experiences.”


“We want to empower our childcare professionals to show up as the best versions of themselves.”


“Childcare is very subjective. I compare it to looking at a painting. I am going to see something different than you see, and that is based on our individual upbringing.”


“I want every parent to leave their house and feel confident with their childcare.” - Nikki Spo


“You can be whatever you want to be at any point in your life.” - Nikki Spo
